Xu Qingran’s movement of eating bread suddenly stopped.

I know it, but I definitely don’t know it.

But he still lowered his eyes to cover his eyes, and calmly made an excuse: "Sorry, there have been too many things recently, and I have forgotten many things in the past."

The man's expression was not too disappointed, and perhaps this was the answer he expected. .

He said: "A lot of things did happen, and we haven't seen each other since your mother passed away. It's normal if you don't remember."

The other person looked only a little older than him now, but he smiled happily at him: " In a blink of an eye, you are now an adult, and you do look a lot like your mother."

"Then let me introduce myself again, I am Qi Heqian."

Seeing that his face was still a little hesitant, the boy continued, "It's the same person you were with when you were a kid. The orphan your mother rescued in a heavy rain was later adopted by your second uncle, and now he is technically your cousin."

After Qi Heqian said this, Xu Qingran suddenly flashed a few things in his mind . screen.

On a night of heavy rain, a woman led a child who was only four or five years old, and met a homeless boy squatting at the entrance of an alley, soaked all over. He was almost skinny and skinny, and there were many scars and bruises on his body.

Even though he was shivering from the cold, he was still protecting a cub that looked like a cat in his arms.

Xu Qingran pretended to be stunned and asked casually: "Remember, how is the cat you rescued before?"

Sure enough, Qi Heqian didn't doubt him, and said with a smile: "It's fine, it's alive and kicking. I stayed with you before coming to the Evil Tower. " I've been on several missions to clean up 'devils'."

Xu Qingran:?

Have all the cats in this world evolved enough to fight with aliens?

"...I've heard about what happened some time ago." Qi Heqian suddenly mentioned, "I told you a long time ago that Lu Cheng was not a good person, yet you still insisted on attacking him."

When he mentioned Lu Cheng, he The smile on his face faded a lot, and his eyes even showed a hint of ridicule.

Xu Qingran nodded in agreement: "You're right, so I'm awake."

But considering the past history of the original owner's love to death, Qi Heqian obviously didn't take it seriously, and put on a serious expression and said to him: "Actually, I'm learning this time I applied to be transferred to the Evil Tower in the name of observation, mainly to investigate one matter."

After a pause, he continued: "It is related to the truth about your mother's death."

Xu Qingran's biological mother is Qi Shengxue, the only daughter of the Qi family. She grew up surrounded by thousands of favors, and was kind and courteous. She even got a doctorate at a young age and became a member of the empire's soul research team.

She died when Xu Qingran was about seven years old. It was said that she was severely depressed and finally committed suicide at home. But Qi Heqian met her when she was a child. Although they didn't get along for a long time, it can be seen from her conversation and attitude towards life that she is an optimistic and motivated girl.

Even if she encounters a serious blow, she knows how to balance her psychology and put her career and children first.

She loved Xu Qingran so much, how could she abandon him and face the rest of her life alone when he was still young and even knew that her husband was with someone outside?
